John is the husband of my 2nd Cousin Martha Ann Thomas He was transferred to 1st Alabama Artillery after his horse was killed.
He enlisted at Montgomery on 21 March 1862. He survived the war .

I am not a relative, but I am doing a project on this particular veteran. He enlisted in 1864 and served until the CSA surrendered in 1865. He was born in Alabama and lived there until he was moved to the Beauvoir Veteran's Home where he lived until his death in his 70's in the 1920's. He was married to Maney Gammill and had one child named Jean Gammill.

1843-1908

my great-great grandfather was the commander of Company I (Alabama Grays) and was wounded at Chickamauga and again near Lovejoy Station. He previously served in Company D, 2nd Alabama and Company A, 42nd Alabama. His younger brother Robert served the Shorter Guards (90 Day Volunteers) and Company D, 3rd Alabama Cavalry. Charles is buried in Oakwood Cemetery in Oakton, Kentucky.
